We certainly didn't run into that problem this year; I think there just wasn't enough water.

I'm now re-thinking one of my past blunders. In the early years, I had trouble with disease if I watered at night, but I'm now thinking that was caused more from the combination of cooler late-summer-into-fall nights and wet plants. A local fella that I know had a great veggie garden through the awful drought, and he said that he overhead watered through the heat of summer during the night. I saw no signs of any kind of problems in his garden, so I may try this next year. I'd rather have drip lines, but who knows if I'll actually get those set up for next year. Whistling
I certainly need to do something...
